Excel Rocks!

Almost a month ago, we launched our new identity: new logo, new website and blog, door sign, nice t-shirts and jackets, a big paaarty….and when you think it’s all over, here it comes: an amazingly long list of financial documents and internal forms that must be re-branded too. Welcome to the wonderful world of Excel and Word! As a designer and used to a friendly Adobe-Mac interface, that was tough. I may have been brainwashed by Adobe, but these softwares just don’t make any sense to me.
Then I found that: the world’s first music video in an Excel spreadsheet!  An AC/DC video — Black ice — converted into ASCII format. Wow Excel rocks!
You can watch it here or if you don’t have excel (shame on you) watch it on youtube.
